Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 10 to 25 minutes, until potatoes are tender.

2. Stir in corn and cabbage and boil gently, uncovered, about 3 minutes.

Add milk. Heat slowly just until soup is steaming hot (do not boil). Season to taste with salt and white pepper. Sprinkle with paprika.
